DRAGONMOUNT

A WHEEL OF TIME COMMUNITY

Hello to all

Hi everyone! My name is Josh and I'm a long time fan of the series, but I'm new here. I've been listening to the podcast for the last few months...think I'm almost done my second time through them all. I could talk WoT for hours lol. A little about me... I've read the entire series once, but I've probably read the first 5 or 6 books around 6 times as I would re-read them as new ones came out. tFoH was the last book out when I started, so I guess I've been reading them since 1994. I've also listened to the entire series on audiobook twice now (long commutes are SOOO much fun), and I'll pry start them again soon to get ready for tGS. Mat is hands down my favorite character, has been since book one, chapter 1 or 2 whenever he's first introduced. No bandwagon fan here ;) I just knew as soon as he peaked around the wagon to talk to Rand, and was described as mischievous that he was just like me heh. Nynaeve is my favorite female character, I don't care what any of the haters say :P All in all I'm looking forward to making some friends here and having a great time talking WoT with anyone who wants to. And I also look forward to getting in on the podcast discussions, and maybe even weaseling my way into becoming a caster myself because when I listen, all I want to do is be able to throw in my two cents. I really wish I could have been able to go to Jordan-Con, but by the time I found out about it, it was too late for me to arrange it. There will be more I know, and I will definitely be there, but it would have been great, and special to be at the very first one. Ah well. Well, I'll leave it at that for now and go say hi to the podcast team:) Light's blessing on all here. *Flourishes and makes a leg*

Welcome to DM Josh! I hope you enjoy it here, the Orgs and Divs are great as well  :)

  Thank you for the warm welcome Mashira...and may I say your warder must have the Dark One's own luck ;) Have you read the whole series yet?

*blush* No warder just yet, I'm a Novice at the WT. I've not read the whole series yet, I started in January and am currently in the middle of book six.  ;D

You're up a lil late for a novice aren't you? hehe Ahh LoC is one of the best, enjoy it! I won't spoil anything for you, but Dumai's Wells will blow you away.

Welcome to DM! I hope you'll have lots of fun here.  :)

 

Thank you much Loreina. Perhaps as an Elder Builder you could answer a question...Why does it say Member under my name and DM member under others?

 

I hope you don't mind if I try to answer the question. It used to be that when you joined Dragonmount you would automatically be put in the DM member usergroup, but then something happened (don't ask me what though) and now new members are not. If you for example join an Organization (Org), you will be added to that Org's usergroup and they will put you in the DM member usergroup too.

 

Ok, maybe that wasn't as good an explanation as I thought it would be...  :P Maybe someone who knows more will be able to explain.  ;)

Thank you for the welcome Raena, and your explanation makes sense to me:)

:) I'm sorry Mat - I have no idea. I tend not to notice such things. *lol*  The important thing is - you're a member! Bask in it, rejoice, and question it not!  ;D  But Raena knows whereof she speaks, so that's prolly the answer.  Hmmmm...*raises eyebrow* For that matter, why am I a DM Member Member? With a star even...  :D

what does the star mean anyway?

 

I found it on a purple hippo in Hallmark one day. Bought the hippo and put it on my desk at work.  My other sign says "I have flying monkeys and I know how to use them."

 

I have no idea.  :)

 

  *lol*  One of our Greens, Minuet Sedai, has flying monkeys and has used them over at the Warders'. In fact...I think we lost some over by the moat...  :D

Welcome to DM!

 

I'm sure a bit of Mat's Luck would go a long way in the Band! ;) So don't hesitate to pop by our Campfires (well, the Stumbling Soldier, actually) for a bit of fun and games.

 

Have a good look around the ORGs and Divs, and may you find a home from home.

:) Absolutely! But you might want to take it slowly, depending on how much time you spend online here. Most of the Orgs have ranks and raising requirements. I don't have much online time, so I've only joined two. But many people have joined all of them, just not necessarily all at once.

Thanks guys, that's nice to know. And yea I'm going to have to watch my time here. I could spend hours on the discussion boards if I don't watch it;) So which is the TV org? lol I'll be checking the Illuminators as well as they sound pretty creative.
